Obama: We need the migrant kids! Limbaugh: for Democrat voters!

~ Ann Corcoran ~ Leave a comment

Did you catch Rush Limbaugh yesterday?

Limbaugh: If our future rests on the illegal alien kids, why are we depriving their home countries of their best people?

He talked about Obama’s trip to Massachusetts where Obama pushed the idea (to Democrat donors!) that America needs the ‘dreamer’ kids like the thousands recently streaming illegally across our border.***

Limbaugh says Obama needs them, of course, for fresh blood as Democrat voters, but Limbaugh also said, and I wish I had thought of it, if these dreamers are so important to our future why are we luring them from their poor homelands mostly in Mexico and Central America? 

Hey Obama, aren’t you in fact stealing their best people and robbing those countries of their futures?

Here is a post at National Review Online about Obama’s talk to Democrat donors, a talk that Limbaugh referred to:

President Obama reminded Democratic donors that “our future rests” on the success of people brought to the United States illegally as children, who would qualify for citizenship if Congress had passed the DREAM Act.

Obama made the comments at a Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee fundraiser in Massachusetts, in reference to students at Worcester Tech.

[….]

“We need it badly from a purely — purely economic point of view,” Biden said Tuesday, per The Hill. It’s an argument that corporations tend to support, but the White House push comes as Congress is still coming to terms with the shock of House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R., Va.) losing his primary to Dave Brat, a political novice supported by local Tea Party activists who faulted Cantor for being out of touch with the district.

Radio talk show host Laura Ingraham promises to make sure the Republican nominee for President in 2016 is not Jeb Bush!

Cantor’s support for DREAM Act-style legislation, which he announced a few months after the 2012 election, inspired conservative radio host Laura Ingraham to rally grassroots voters against him.

“Now, Ingraham is setting her sights on 2016: In particular, she wants to ensure that the Republican nominee is not cut from Cantor’s cloth,” National Review Online’s Eliana Johnson reported. “Brat’s victory, she says, is a step in the right direction: ‘Everybody that’s hoping and praying for a Jeb Bush run, they should spend a lot of time focusing on what just happened in Virginia.’”

Remember Bush’s controversial remarks a couple of months ago about the illegals flooding in from Central America and Mexico when he called their illegal entry an “act of love?”

One of my friends wondered yesterday if the Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services lobbying campaign for the “kids” called #ActOfLove was inspired by Bush!

If you are on twitter, be sure to tweet your stories about the “vulnerable kids” to #ActOfLove!

Christian Science Monitor: are illegal kids criminals or refugees?

They are most certainly not refugees! 

 

Refugees or criminals? http://www.breitbart.com/Breitbart-Texas/2014/06/05/Leaked-Images-Reveal-Children-Warehoused-in-Crowded-US-Cells-Border-Patrol-Overwhelmed

 

Ever since we started writing this blog in 2007, the open borders agitators (including the refugee contractors) and immigration lawyers have been attempting to expand the definition of “refugee” for the purpose of bringing in anyone in the world who is fleeing crime (or says they are fleeing crime).

Fleeing one’s home country because the country is overrun with gangs and drug dealers, and where the government there is unable to protect its citizens from crime generally, does not make one a “refugee.”   And think about it, wouldn’t that make half the world eligible for asylum in America?  Or, is that what Obama wants?

A refugee:

…. is a person who is outside their home country because they have suffered (or feared) persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or because they are a member of a persecuted ‘social group’ or because they are fleeing a war.

Either the “refugee” has been chosen by the UN and admitted to the US by the US State Department and flown here, or in the case of asylum seekers who got here on their own (crossed a border illegally or overstayed a visa), they must first be judged to be legitimately escaping persecution before they are declared a refugee.

The big push to find the kids lawyers is to attempt to prove that they are legitimate asylum seekers and for the US to ultimately grant them asylum which would make them refugees and thereby make them eligible for all of the taxpayer “services” available to any American citizen.  See our fact sheet!

An “economic migrant” is an alien who is seeking a better life—he or she wants a job or welfare.  They are also NOT refugees.

The recent “unaccompanied minor” border invaders may be “economic migrants,” but they definitely are illegal aliens and therefore criminals.

Here is Patrik Jonsson reporting at the Christian Science Monitor (hat tip: Joanne).

I’ve communicated with Jonsson.  He has exposed some secrecy in the “refugee” program before so I would urge him to help figure out who are the instigators of this invasion, it isn’t the kids (who are being used, in my opinion, by those who are attempting to bring on the revolution)!

Who are those shadowy players?  Or is it the White House itself?

The growing crush of vulnerable migrant children crossing the Rio Grande and entering the US through south Texas has put urgency to a vexing question for the US immigration system:

Are children fleeing Central American violence refugees who need asylum or illegal gold-diggers who need to go home?

The rush on the border has created what the White House and many others have called a humanitarian crisis. But it has also pushed Washington into finger-pointing mode, with politicians and commentators trying to pin down why children, often guided by “coyote” smugglers, are traveling hundreds of miles across Mexico into the US.

Read it all.

BTW, I heard a scary prediction yesterday—-that after the 2014 election, Obama plans to pardon all illegal aliens in the US.  Is that what the “kids” know?

With all of this horrific news about the invasion of America by mostly teenaged boys from Central America, I see a bright side!  

Those who have brought this nightmare (including the US Conference of Catholic Bishops and the Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services***) to the front pages have succeeded in making the word “refugee” a very dirty word in homes across America after years and years of building up “refugees” as wonderful, deserving, industrious and grateful NEW AMERICANS.   Keep it up!

Come to think of it, maybe I shouldn’t be so quick to say they aren’t refugees!

***Why do I keep naming those two refugee contractors (of the nine), because they are two that have had contracts from the ORR to care for the “kids.”   But, I expect all of the contractors to be scrambling for the $$$$$ and a piece of the action now that more of your tax dollars (billions in fact!) may soon be flowing their way.

As a matter of fact, the contractors all lobbied for the ‘gang of eight’s’ so-called “comprehensive immigration reform” bill because it contained provisions for them to gain more “clients” and more federal grant and contract money.  Since that hasn’t gone through, and likely won’t anytime soon, this windfall—to care for the kids—is the next best thing for them!

The invasion on our Southern border by child “refugees” helped defeat Eric Cantor

Update June 12th:  Why were pro-amnesty rioters at Cantor headquarters on Tuesday night?  Here!

They have overplayed their hand this time.  Their strategy has back-fired.

Cantor offer to Obama: We can do something for the kids.

Who is they?  Obama, Cecilia Munoz, some in the Republican Party (Bush, Cantor, US Chamber of Commerce) and the open borders lobby including the US Conference of Catholic Bishops and the Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service*** which you know were helping spread the word throughout Mexico and Central America that the illegal alien “kids” were welcome to invade America.

And, they have squandered decades of the warm and fuzzy feelings that naive do-gooders have built up around the word “refugee.”   Earlier yesterday, as House Majority Leader Eric Cantor’s political death sentence was being meted out, I was struck by this article published at Human Events (hat tip Paul) on Sunday—-‘Cloward-Piven at the border‘ by John Hayward.

If you have never heard of the Cloward-Piven strategy read one of our posts on the topic from 2009 for some background.

It is not the connection to C-P that interested me so much as it was Hayward’s use of the word “refugee” linked to something that is so obviously disgusting to the average American—invaders expecting hand outs.

These teenage migrants from mostly Central America are not refugees and by pushing that mantra Obama and others have succeeded, better than critics of the program could ever do, in sullying the word that as I said has had an aura of pure goodness about it ever since the Refugee Act of 1980 (Kennedy/Carter) was signed into law.

As various political action and education groups have built up over the years working to slow immigration into America, those groups and their leaders have stayed away from criticism of “refugees” because apparently they viewed them as untouchable and above criticism in the public mind.

I wonder will all of that change now that these illegal alien invaders are being openly called “refugees?”

Back to Cantor and what his defeat could mean…..

Read that Human Events piece in which Hayward quotes Cantor:

“I have told the president, there are some things we can work on together,” he said in the WTVR interview.

“We can work on the border security bill together, we can work on something like the kids,” he said referring to his proposal to offer some undetermined variety of amnesty to the children and youths of millions of parents who entered the country illegally.

There couldn’t have been worse timing for Cantor—as thousands of “kids” showed up on the border obviously lured by Washington establishment talk of something for the kids.

And, here is a good comment to Erick Erickson’s analysis of the Cantor defeat (the Brat victory!).  Erickson doesn’t believe it was all about immigration, but some of his readers beg to differ.  And here is one of them:

‘The Rebel’ (emphasis is mine):

Cantor supported legislation known as the KIDS Act, which would give citizenship to children brought to the country illegally. Given the flood of illegal children on our southern borders over the past two weeks, I would say that was the deciding factor.

The biggest loser tonight after Cantor has to be Jeb Bush. They were tied at the hip on amnesty and common core. It wouldn’t surprise me if he didn’t win a single primary other than FL. Let’s see if he backtracks on his messaging now.

The other loser is Obama. If he thinks he can just ramrod immigration and amnesty through on executive orders, let him try. Not only would those endangered Senate Dems be finished, but other Senate Dems within reach by Republicans could also be in trouble. This earthquake will fire up the Republican base for November.

The refugee contractor lobbyists who stood to gain millions of new “clients” will be big losers too if the Senate’s so-called comprehensive immigration reform doesn’t become law!  (By the way, as the mainstream media beats this issue, very few will understand the connection between the contractors, who will be paid to service the immigrants/refugees, amnesty, and the invasion of unaccompanied minors, but longtime readers of RRW will.)

Here is my solution to the “humanitarian crisis” (Obama’s characterization) on the border.  Load up the planes with unaccompanied teens (83% are above the age of 14, 77% are males), fly them to their respective capitals in Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras, turn them over to their governments to find their families, and threaten the withdrawal of all US aid if any of them set foot in America again.   A few flights like that and the rush will end, and it will save us one hell of a lot of money besides (Obama wants over a $billion to take care of the “kids.”).

Endnote: We asked on Monday: Where is America’s sense of self preservation?  Looks like it’s in Virginia’s 7th District (for starters!).

***Be sure to see the Lutheran’s #ActOfLove campaign (for the kids) just launched two weeks ago.

 

Obama immigration policy has opened the flood gates

Invasion of America…..

 

Shocking photos, including the one above, were published by Breitbart last week of the “kids” from mostly Central America who are coming across our Southern border by the hundreds every day.  Hat tip: Robin

….it’s a humiliating example of what our government’s inability to develop solid immigration and border security policies can cause.”   Said Breitbart Texas Border Expert and Contributing Editor Sylvia Longmire.

Just a reminder, that those under 18 years old and traveling alone are considered ‘unaccompanied minors’ and will become essentially refugees under the care of the Office of Refugee Resettlement.  See here and here.

See all of the photos released by Breitbart by clicking here.

It is a horrible thing to say, but I think Obama wants this to be happening.

With release of illegal alien women and children in TX and AZ, the word spreads and more will come

Invasion of America….

The Obama Administration’s immigration policy is luring illegal migrants from Central America and Mexico to our Southern border where the ability to detain them has collapsed.

Somehow the migrants have confused the ‘unaccompanied minor’ policy (where the kids traveling alone are treated as refugees) and now mothers with little kids think they are free to come as well.

I think that Obama is quite happy with the situation as he speeds up the revolution.  After all, his time is running out to fundamentally transform America.

From Statesman.com.  Thanks to a reader (sorry lost track of who sent it!).

Ana Bulnes the new Honduran consul at the recently opened office in McAllen, TX: “The people who are able to enter are those who send the message back.”

REYNOSA, Tamaulipas —

The 27-year-old Honduran woman is desperate to know if the rumor is true: that she’ll be allowed to stay in the United States because she is traveling with her 2-year-old daughter.

At a shelter for migrants in Reynosa across the border from McAllen, Jennys Aguilar Cardenas and other women have heard about mothers being released with their babies, about children being reunited with relatives in the U.S. Like a game of telephone, the word has spread, giving hope to an apparently growing number of migrants willing to risk the dangerous crossing — with their young children — to escape intense poverty and crime at home.

US adding incentives to make the move now:

The spike in migrant detentions comes as Obama is under pressure both to reform immigration laws and to do more to stop illegal entries. Republican lawmakers have suggested the rise in child migrants is a result of lax enforcement. The Border Patrol acknowledges there is a problem in families being released, with its deputy chief, Ronald Vitiello, noting in a May 30 draft memo that such actions are “incentives to additional individuals to follow the same path.”

Spreading by word of mouth:

Ana Bulnes, the Honduran consul for South Texas, said Wednesday it is hard to discourage families from making the trip when U.S. authorities, in fact, are releasing them — sometimes dropping them off at bus stations in Texas and Arizona.

The rumors are spreading by word of mouth, not through any mass media channels such as radio that can be monitored, she said.

“The people who are able to enter are those who send the message back,’” Bulnes said.

About the photo: On May 30th, the Honduran government opened a new consulate in McAllen Texas.  Bulnes is celebrating with champagne.  The timing couldn’t be better.
